Yeranos 1823m, Mountain summit in Gegharkunik Province, Armenia
Mount Yeranos rises 1823 meters above sea level, featuring steep northern slopes and gentler inclines on its southern and eastern faces within the Geghama mountain range.
The mountain stands near the ruins of Dvin, which served as the capital of Armenia during the fourth century and maintained regional significance throughout medieval times.
Local hiking groups perform traditional Armenian mountain rituals at the summit, continuing practices that connect modern adventurers with ancient regional customs.
The mountain trail starts from Garni village, crosses the Azat River, and extends 25 kilometers along the ridge before descending toward Lanjazat village near Azat Reservoir.
The northern section of Mount Yeranos forms part of Khosrov Forest State Reserve, containing distinct geological formations including a natural structure known as the Sphinx.
